Shower tray repair for Fields End homes

Do you need shower tray repair in Fields End?

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

The things customers generally mention when they call are:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scuffs and light scratches

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How we handle shower tray repair in Fields End

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s chips or cracks by the plughole and cracks running from the waste, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Landlord and trade work in Fields End

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Fields End questions

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How long does it take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, usually the following day.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
